What's goin' on?

You might be wondering why I have not been posting regularly these days.. Well... I have been working hard on a new project and I am VERY EXCITED about it!!!! I will be able to share the news with you in a about a week during La-La Land Crafts First Birthday Blog Hop. I can't wait to tell you what it is!!! I know you will be as excited about it as I am!!

On another note, there is something that I can share with you today :-). Last Saturday I got the September issue of a CardMaker magazine in the mail and there are not one, not two.. but FOUR of my cards in there!!! If you get this mag, check out pages 42, 50, 64 and 66!!!

There is even a small picture tutorial for one if the cards there!! Oh, and one of those cards is on the front cover on the right side of the title.. it is a small picture there, but it is on the cover nonetheless and I will take it!! ;-).

For those of you who might not be able to get the magazine, I thought I would post my cards here for you to see :-)





Hugs!!

I have been published!!!

Finally I can tell you which card of mine made it to CardMaker Magazine!! I received a package from them a few days ago with two March 2010 issues, and my card is featured on page 20 :-)


When I first heard from the publisher, I was in a way disappointed that they picked this card for publication.. This is one of the simplest cards I made, and I wished that they would have chosen some of the other cards.. But, it did get me noticed!!! In the next issue there will be two cards of mine, and in the issue after that - FOUR!!! Needless to say, I am EXCITED!!!!

Oh, and here is the link to CardMaker magazine website.. My card is even featured in the "Current Issue" highlights!!!

Hugs!!

I am getting PUBLISHED!!

Well, not me, of course.. One of my cards will be published in the March 2010 issue of the CardMaker Magazine!!! I don't submit my cards very often, the main reason is because all of the cards I make nowadays are for my classes.. I just do not have time to make additional cards and mail them out to the magazines for them to decide whether or not they would consider my work.. CardMaker Magazine takes email submissions, so once in a while I send them emails with the photos of my cards. So far I had sent three emails with a few cards in each. Had never heard back from them until tonight!!! They have accepted one of my cards!!!

Unfortunately, I can't tell or show you which card will be published :-(

But of course I just could not wait until March of the next year to share the news with you!! I am just too excited!!! My first publication!!! Woo Hoo!!

Hugs!!
